While the world searches for a criminal mastermind to blame for this tragedy, two mysterious children—children who shouldn't even exist—masterfully carry out their heinous plan.

~My First Impression~

This one is probably going to be the best anime of this summer. I can't remember when was the last time I saw something like it. A great psychological thriller for those who loves suspense. Great music, great animation, great character design, and yas....... awesome entertainment. For a couple of times I felt like this story is gonna be like some other usual ones, based on secret human research facility, revenge and such. I can't be sure after just one episode, but I'm probably right. But even a old plot can turn out awesome with how the story is told, and that's what is happening with this Zankyou no Terror.
